About the Blog

This blog is designed to complement the conference Bodies in Movement: Intersecting Discourses of Materiality in the Sciences and the Arts that took place at the University of Edinburgh on the 28-9th May 2011. The subject matter of the conference is positioned at the turn in critical humanities discourses towards the sciences in investigating and articulating the processes of embodied movement.

Acknowledging the potential width and currency of this theme, the organisers have launched this blog to flag links and sources which communicate with the conference focus as well as other events which embrace a similar subject matter. We hope that this site can become an engaging, perhaps even valuable dissemination point for such resources.
